About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since ever can I remember. I grew up with dogs, cats, horses, and ducks, allowing me to learn how to responsibly care for them from a young age. After I moved out 3 years ago, I adopted a puppy that I have been the sole caretaker for, so I’ve seen the puppy phase and worked on training. We are always going on new adventures or playing whenever I have free time. I also have 2 cats that I’ve raised since kittens, which has helped nurture my fondness for pets, and I would love to spend some of my free time with yours! :) I’m currently working full time as a research coordinator, but WFH on Fridays so I have flexible availability Fridays, and full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I can also be available after 5pm Mondays-Thursdays! I will follow any instructions for pet care that works best for you, following routes for walks and whatever you need from me. I will communicate throughout the walks or visits as well so you can ensure your fur baby is happy and healthy!

About: My family and I view each pet as they are our own. My promise to each pet parent is to provide safe and secure, tender-loving pet care from our home to yours! Being home full time enables me to have a flexible schedule. I’m available seven days a week for boarding, drop- in visits or dog walks. At my home we have a fenced-in small patio and plenty of time and space in my neighborhood to take pets on walks to provide daily exercise. I also like to take pets to local parks to release more energy if needed.

About: While I do not currently have any pets myself right now due to my current living conditions I grew up with 3 dogs and would dog sit for my neighbors dogs for about 10 years. I will do my best to care for your pets as if they were my own. I currently work 2 part-time jobs but the schedules are very flexible so if you need a specific day of the week and time just let me know and I can most likely make it work. As previously stated I do not currently have any pets at home but when I did I would let them run freely or play with them in a fenced in backyard, keep them on a strict healthy diet/feeding routine and would walk or even go on runs with them for anywhere between 1-3 miles. I would always clean them and wipe their paws when bringing them back inside and let them roam freely within the gated portions of the house.

About: For 15 years, I have loved and cared for my animals. I was lucky enough to receive excellent training for my shepherd/husky and incorporate the methods during interactions with other animals as well as my new puppy. I completely understand needing reliable care when away. Patience, exercise and attention work wonders!! I'm currently working remote on Thursdays and am able to fit walks in throughout the day as well as during weekends. A varied schedule is fine!! Ensuring the animal's environment is the same when I leave as when I arrive is necessary to prevent injury or any accident. My yard is completely fenced in and equipped to play and run!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, both small and big! I absolutely love furry friends and have one of my own. I have a small, older cockapoo named Riley and I’ve taken care of him since he was a puppy and I was in 8th grade - I actually had to pitch an entire care plan to let my mom allow me to have him! I work entirely from home and have a calm, quiet environment. I work entirely from home and have breaks throughout the day where I’d be able to play with your furry friend! I work both during the day and overnight, and will be able to tend to your dogs needs hourly at the very least! I have a fenced yard and a small cockapoo who is calm and friendly. I have a small crate as well if that is supportive for your pup! My home is calm and stress-free. You can count on regular updates, photos, and honest communication while your pup is in my care!

Can’t say enough positive things about Christiana !! We have a very large, very skittish English mastiff and Christiana was very patient, professional, and caring through the whole process. She spent so much time with us during the initial meet and greet, and she went above and beyond for Bingo during her visit. We hope to continue to utilize her services in the future and would recommend her to any and all!!

I cannot say enough great things about ! They were so attentive and truly loving toward my dogs the entire time. It was clear from the start how much they genuinely care every detail was handled with patience and kindness, and my pups were happy, relaxed, and well-cared for when I returned. I received thoughtful updates that gave me peace of mind, and I could tell my dogs felt safe and loved in their presence. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like family, I highly recommend Cynthia. I will absolutely be booking with them again

This has been hands down, by far, our BEST dog sitting experience in 13 years. Our old girl LOVED Nicole who treated her like her own. Nicole was kind enough to walk the yard with her even later at night. She sent us wonderful updates with plenty of pictures. We felt secure knowing Ginny was getting loved on and treated so well, such a weight off of our shoulders. Nicole is a dream to work with, I’ll never be able to thank her enough!!!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - East Patchogue

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of June 2026, there are 2,769 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across East Patchogue. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a East Patchogue stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in East Patchogue choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in East Patchogue with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in East Patchogue. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
